Open positions at UC San Diego Department of Structural Engineering

[announce at designsafe-ci.org]

The Department of Structural Engineering at UC San Diego
<https://structures.ucsd.edu/> seeks candidates for two positions at the
Englekirk Structural Engineering Center:



i)               Project Scientist (non-tenured Assistant/Associate/Full)
to lead the research operations and coordinate experimental programs from
industry, and ii) Research and Development Engineering to manage the
construction, testing and data aquisition for experimental programs.

ii)             The Englekirk Structural Engineering Center is home to the
Large High-Performance Outdoor Shake Table (LHPOST6), the largest 6-DOF
shake table in the US, and the Blast Simulator Facility, among other
structural and geotechnical testing facilities.



The selected candidates will contribute to and support the laboratory’s
research mission to provide the structural engineering community with a
world-class testing facility producing high-quality experimental data as
well as consultation on experimental design and training/education. Both
positions require expertise in structural dynamics, experimental mechanics,
and controls, particularly in structural and/or geotechnical engineering
and seismic qualification testing. The candidate must demonstrate knowledge
in the operation of servo-hydraulic control systems and data
acquisition/instrumentation systems (including sensor technology). Both
candidates will be trained to operate LHPOST.



These positions will involve the supervision of one or more development
engineers and/or technicians at the Center. The project scientist position
requires a doctoral degree or in civil engineering, mechanical engineering,
structural engineering, mechatronics, or a related field. Advanced degrees
or equivalent experience in similar fields is desired for the R&D
Engineering candidate. The review of applications will begin on May 15,
2021, and will continue until the positions are filled. The level of
appointment is commensurate with qualifications and salary based on UC pay
scales.
